  1. Commercial RE is still a lingering threat.
  2. The market has returned with a vengence! I just cant shake the feeling that we have not seen the last of this recession.
  3. Day of silence. For once.
  4. There was no bigger economic force in the music world. He will never be forgotten.
  5. RIP - MJ
  6. Banks paying back TARP at record pace - $70B+ I guess the people who were against TARP feel pretty stupid now.
  7. If you thought the economy was going to get better (and it has) then why make the banks raise the stress test money now? Smells fishy.
  8. The stress tests were designed to see what the banks needed "if" the economy worsened. They are forcing to raise money now.
  9. The need to do stress tests on the banks reveals a secret that the U.S. Govt is not talking about -- the eventual decline in economy.
  10. Bank of America did the right thing to sell a stake in an asset that is not directly related to their survival. http://bit.ly/1kQXx
  11. It was relatively cheap financing so why turn around and sell more shares, dilute more shareholders for more expensive capital?
  12. For banks: You already took TARP money, why rush to give it back? The damage was done when you initially agreed to take it.
  13. The real problem with swine flu is its effect on economics. Remember, 36,000 people die from seasonal flu every year.
  14. Warren: Those in glass houses should not throw stones.
  15. Why is Warren Buffett talking bad stuff on banks and insurers??? He is both and made just as dumb decisions with BRK shares.
  16. Fiat is going to do good by rolling up Chrysler and GM Europe.
  17. Citi posting another "profit." Lets see, $45 billion from Treasury minus $43.4 billion in losses equals $1.6 billion in profit. Is that it?
  18. Congrats to Ashton!! 1 million is a lot of tweeps!
  19. and South Korea.
  20. Off to do some research on India.
